Steady a rough, hunting idle with the Standard Ignition Idle Air Control Valve AC76. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1995 Ford Contour and 1995 Mercury Mystique, restoring the factory idle-air path when the original valve wears out. This is the component the engine uses to meter air around a closed throttle plate, so if a failed idle air control valve is the cause of your idle trouble, this replaces it.
